Happy smiley day :)

Today was a good day :)
I actually managed to sleep a bit last night, so that meant I felt better today!
About 10 years ago, a photographer called Annabel Williams took some lovely photographs of our family. Me and Milly look dead cute in them :) Well, just after my blog became big, Annabel contacted mum and offered to do some up to date family photos for us and today was the day. We did some photos in the house, some in the field and then we went down to the beach with the dogs for more. I was quite tired by the end, but I'm really excited to see the results, especially the ones with Mabel in. Thank you to Annabel :)
Then tonight, after I'd had a good snooze, Clarissa popped to see me and I showed her how to tweet - that was funny because just a week ago, I didn't know what I was doing! Now I've just got to get Sammi and Megs on Twitter.
I have lots of things arranged in the next few weeks - we're hoping to visit some friends in the south, I'm off to stay in the chocolate room at Alton Towers and I'm going to be meeting the Prime Minister to discuss bone marrow registry.
Oh and Mr whatshisface didn't get to me, I'm made of much stronger stuff!
Night, night .... keep spreading the words BONE MARROW REGISTRY x

    I hope that I phrase this right and say what I want to say properly. That man is ignorant of how hard it is to get up every day and deal with a serious illness. I think that you've dealt with your situation with humour and intelligence, and your adventures have been making me smile. John Smith missed the point entirely; you are a human being first, and you just happen to be unwell. You have a right to live your life, I mean, does he expect you to be chained to a hospital bed? Keep at it girlie, you deserve a bit of fun and laughter. Take care, and enjoy the chocolate room (is it actually made from chocolate?)

    Dear Alice,
    The PM is very lucky he gets to meet you!!!
    I'm not sure what the Chocolate room is, but it sounds like a divine place to be!!! Enjoy :)
    My bone marrow swab kit is in the mail and I can't wait to receive it and get the ball rolling. Do you suppose I'll match someone?? (fingers crossed)
    Photographs of my family bring me so much joy and help me to relive the good 'ol days, I'm glad to see that you're having fun with photos!!!
    I have 10 day old golden retriever puppies in the house, so you can imagine I've been snapping tons each day.. My kids can't resist posing with these cute little guys!!

    You seem very chirpy for that time in the morning! I'll do my best to match your mood. I am a secondary school teacher in Spain and have been using your blog in my classes. How about that for an accidental career move! You're a virtual, digital teacher!! You started off with just 2 of my classes, but then my students took you all around the school and introduced you to everyone, including the other teachers. I suppose I'll have to save you a mug and a chair in the staffroom!

    Hey Alice

    Donating blood today, which I do every 8 weeks. Everyone who can should do this too, and get registered for the bone marrow registry in Canada. Talk to Canadian Blood Services for more into.

    Enjoy your meeting with the PM, and have a bit of chocolate for us! Cheers!

    Dear Alice,
    Oh my goodness, a chocolate room! I'm trying desperately hard not to drool on my keyboard--I hear that's bad for computers. Have an amazing time!
    Question: Instead of a chocolate on your pillow, is the whole pillow made of chocolate?

    For a moment I got Annabel and Mabel mixed up and thought your dog was somehow a photographer. That would've been an awesome trick for your dog show.

    Good luck with the Prime Minister! I'm off to Tweet about BMR with hash-tags and links and everything!

    God bless, sweety, and have faith.

    You are truly an inspiration and it is wonderful to know that people like you exist. Being brave is one thing but to actually try to make the most of your life is truly special. Idiots like the guy who wrote nonsense to you are not worth your time but you sure put him in his place! Good for you.

    I hope that you continue to do all that you can to enjoy your life and will be pulling for you to complete your bucket list. You already know that you are living an exceptional life and no matter what the length of it might be, it will have been one that you have absolutely made the most of ... and that is not something most of us can say.

    You should also know that as the Principal of a school in Karachi, Pakistan ... earlier this year, I have encouraged my students and others to become bone marrow donors based on the story of another young person. While your goals are much broader, and I hope you get to achieve significant progress, I am pleased to know that in some small way I have contributed to your bucket list.

    One thing that you should already know, but I will say it again, and that is that you will inspire others to be as strong and positive as you are ... and you should put that on your list and check that box immediately!! I am sure that your parents, family and friends are immensely proud of you.

    I shall look forward to reading your blog and keeping up with your adventures. Much love and prayers for you from my family.

    I heard a song on the radio this morning. It's an older song but the whole time it was on I thought of you. It's called "Keep on Smiling"

Me comovi com sua história, a um ano perdi minha mãe, ela tinha uma doença também, e em uma manhã fui acordar ela, mas já estava morta. Você parece muito com ela, mesmo sabendo que sua vida estava terminando, ela estava lá, sempre sorrindo, sempre feliz. O mundo precisa de pessoas assim, como você. Felicidades para você e sua família, beijo.

    I'm so pleased you managed some sleep Alice and you feel better for it :) It sounds like you've been mega-busy and have another week filled to the brim with exciting things to do - I hope everything goes to plan and you have the most fantastic time.

    I haven't been able to post every day but just had to let you know that I pre-ordered my Emma Bridgewater mug as soon as I got their email - WOW what a beautiful design, WTG! I was so excited when the order was placed because I was dreading them being out of stock before I even logged on lol. It's going to look great in my cabinet and will forever bring a smile to my face when I look at it so thank you so much for giving me a cup full of happiness, smiles, inspiration and courage - I will treasure it forever :)

    Have loads of fun in the chocolate room (don't forget to eat all your tea first ;) )

    I hope you all have a wonderfully happy day, big smiles and lots of hugs

    Thank you for telling millions of people out there to join the bone marrow registry- i try to encourage people to join too!
    I'm gonna take my copy of the bucket list and watch it with all my cancer buddies and also show them your blog!
    Alice what i will say is you have brought joy into my life and touched it, and i only hope that i can be half as inspirational to others as you are to me!

    Hi. My name is Irene Christodoulakis [I know, a mouthful, right?], and I am 14 years old. I live in New Jersey, in America. Did you know you're practically famous here? During the last few weeks of school, when we had nothing to do, you and a few other subjects were the things we would talk about.

    You have my prayers, Alice. Just remember that everything is meant for a reason, and that if your time comes sooner rather than later, just remember, "To be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord."

    It's great to hear that you had another happy day! :) I hope you have a lot of fun in the Chocolate Room. Definitely sounds like my kind of room! Enjoy it for yourself and all of us! :D Hopefully, the meeting with the Prime Minister will go well. Seems exciting! Have a lot of fun with everything, and just keep smiling! ^-^

    Cheers,

    Glad you had such a good day! Don't let people get you down.

    I have a suggestion - would someone like Antony Nolan be interested in making t-shirts, possibly with one of your photos, saying 'I am a bone marrow donor' or something? (Proceeds to charity, of course!) It might be a good way to raise awareness of bone marrow donation among people who aren't very tuned into the internet yet. I'd wear one!

    Alice, You are an incredibly brave young woman. Your blog reminds me that life is fragile...many of us take what we have for granted, myself included. Please try to ignore the haters. Some people can be pigs...but not everyone...not most of us (I hope) Life is what you make of it and you have inspired many (myself included) to do more with the life we have. Keep fighting the good fight...sometimes sheer will and determination do win. You've already crossed more things off your bucket list than most do in a lifetime! You are amazing!

    Alice - First off, you're are a wonderful writer! Second, you are such an inspiration for others, and not just for people battling cancer. Life can be tough for all of us at different times in our life but regardless of what happens to us we do have power over how we react to it --whether we're going to let us bring us down, give up or just turn us into grumpy toads. Though I haven't met you I can sense your bright, positive, beautiful spirit and that is a rare thing in this world today.
    Thanks for sharing your story and I look forward to dropping in from time to time and keeping up with you on your journey. Take care!
    Hugs,
    Kelly from San Diego, California

    Hi Alice - Here's a joke to make you smile:


    A doctor, a lawyer, a little boy and a priest were out for a Sunday afternoon flight on a small private plane. Suddenly, the plane developed engine trouble.

    In spite of the best efforts of the pilot, the plane started to go down. Finally, the pilot grabbed a parachute, yelled to the passengers that they had better jump, and bailed out.

    Unfortunately, there were only three parachutes remaining.

    The doctor grabbed one and said "I'm a doctor, I save lives, so I must live," and jumped out.

    The lawyer then said, "I'm a lawyer and lawyers are the smartest people in the world. I deserve to live," and jumped out.

    The priest looked at the little boy and said, "My son, I've lived a long and full life. You are young and have your whole life ahead of you. Take the last parachute and live in peace."

    The little boy handed the parachute back to the priest and said, "Not to worry, Father. The 'smartest man in the world' just took off with my back pack."

    Kelly, in California

    Hey Alice's please go to youtube.com and type in Hip Hop saves lives Alice's theme song, and listen to the song i did for you to get people to register for bone marrow. I sent it to the bone marrow company in London that you speak of for them to use as well. I will email you the lyrics or better yet post them on youtube under the song.

    hope you enjoy the song!!! I also emailed it to you also so you can download it and share!

    cheers from Hip Hop saves lives

    Hi Alice!

    I saw your story on CNN today and just wanted to stop by. Your bucket list is a wonderful idea, and it sounds like you've been having some amazing experiences! Most of all, you are making a real difference by inspiring others and working toward a better bone marrow registry. When I get back to college, I will sign myself up and do the swab kit! Cheers, and I hope you have a wonderful day!

    Hugs from New York xoxo

    Hi Alice
    Got my swab stuff through from ANT today. Will be spitting in the pot and sending it back asap! Amazed by the people from all around the world who are commenting here, you've done a phenomenal thing here and you can be very proud. Truly amazing to have achieved so much for one who is so young. Sometimes teenagers in this country get a lot of flak in the press, but you are an example of the best of British and I for one am proud to be able to call myself your fellow countryman. Keep smiling and don't let the weight of what you've created here distract you from your family and your list! Wishing you and your family all the best, Ben

    Just wanted to let you know that I'm reading your blog and am endlessly impressed with your optimism and good spirit. I'm more than twice your age, and I don't think I could handle your situation with as much grace as you've displayed.

    That said, I'm also secretly hoping for something fantastic to happen and give you more time to experience life! You certainly deserve it.

    Well done Alice...John Smith is a jerk and an idiot and good for you for calling him out on it, what is wrong with these people??!!

    I think you are marvellous, you are a wonderful girl and your family must be beyond proud of you.

    Just wanted to tell you that I went to the London Aquarium with my 5 year old son yesterday on a school trip and when I saw the shark tank all I could think of you was you and when you swam with those sharks!!! LOL!! You are one brave girl!!!!

    Glad you enjoyed the photo shoot!! xx
